SOBER IN OCTOBER
SHOW SOLIDARITY WITH THOSE ENGAGED IN OUR LGBT AD GROUP, AND SUPPORT THE WORK OF THE RAINBOW PROJECT
Story
In a recent survey by The Rainbow Project, 1 in 4 lgb&/t respondents exhibited at least one indicator of drug and/or alcohol abuse. It also showed LGB&T people are also twice as likely as the wider Northern Ireland population to drink daily or most days (13% v 6%).
